I was busy doing four things at once: discussing my annual performance review with my manager, conducting a fraud investigation into a person that I interviewed this morning who turned out to be an alien smuggler, finishing a “cable” on a summer program where foreign college students can go to America for a work and travel program, and analyzing the work trends for the last month.

As I was walking through our big, crowded office, unconsciously eavesdropping on the five visa interviews that were happening along one wall of the office, making my way back to my desk, smiling to all my coworkers as we passed each other, I realized that I am working in the coolest job that I’ve ever had.
